Preparing for GDPR With Optimal IdM Preparing for GDPR With Optimal IdM Preparing for GDPR With Optimal IdM The Internet operates without regards to international borders, so an EU citizen’s authentication request may transverse the EU boundary, depending on locations. Any organization collecting data on European customers may be affected, but an Identity Access Management solution can help. How Optimal IdM is committed to GDPR compliance Optimal IdM only utilizes state-of-the-art datacenters, operated by internationally recognized providers. The datacenters we utilize are configured with the highest possible security and are audited annually, keeping us GDPR compliant. The amount of encrypted information passed during this authentication exchange is a function of the relying provider request. Optimal IdM does not add any vulnerabilities, or outside processing. Why an Identity Access Management Solution Helps can reduce headaches by centralizing all the identities and personal information you manage to fewer locations. Personal information does not need to be stored in numerous applications and databases across your company. Reducing your identity stores will make user management easier and more efficient while lowering inappropriate disclosure risks. With our software acting as a middleman, access to a data store is restricted only to our software. And for consumer identities, you no longer need to maintain your own repository of personal identity information. Having an IAM solution in place can simplify your data mapping process by providing a roadmap for your data flows. An IAM serves as a centralized control point for authentication and access to systems throughout your company. The sources of identity data used in your company are specified in the IAM software. Likewise, all parties relying on that identity data are also specified in the IAM software. Therefore, an IAM solution can be your internal source to understand where data goes. If a web app requests access to your customer database, you now know you must pursue that path to see is if the data is stored elsewhere. By centralizing identity management to one application, it eliminates pathways that allow access to other locations. Authorization is the process of verifying that you have access to something. Gaining access to a resource (e.g. directory on a hard disk) because the permissions configured on it allow you access. These critical activities manage user authentication and authorization. Subtle, yet very significant, differences in management levels may leave vulnerabilities to access control. When the in-line business managers are responsible for determining and attesting to access levels, mistakes are less likely to happen and GDPR compliance is more likely. For example, Optimal IdM’s cloud solution is being leveraged by our clients who recognize that we are federation experts and can more easily deploy, maintain and monitor their federation infrastructure. This allows their staff to focus on what they are doing now and not have to become Federation experts. This writeup will help you, the customer, to factor in the intangibles. A good example of this is the fact that while federation is built on open standards, not all vendors adhere to the actual standard. Optimal IdM has created federation connections to hundreds of applications (relying parties) and we have had to make many tweaks along the ways. For example, one cloud application that we have integrated with is case sensitive in their URL’s, even though the federation specifications call for case insensitivity. Another application did not properly deflate their SAML2 authentication request.
